00:01Previously on The Rookie Feds...
00:03He did work counterintelligence for a decade
00:05before he came out to Los Angeles.
00:06Just asked for the best investigator they had.
00:09Well, you got him.
00:10We're professionals who break guys like you for a living,
00:13and if you think the Russians have your back,
00:15you are hopelessly naive.
00:16The reason I-I haven't opened the bottle
00:19is because I'm sober 247 days.
00:22Thank you for sharing that with me.
00:24I lateral transferred from Oakland PD six months ago,
00:26and I gotta say, I'm still not vibing with that L.A. thing.
00:29You just haven't given the right people a try.
00:32Once you find your folks,
00:34you gonna see L.A. through different eyes.
00:38Hey, girl, hey.
00:40Sorry I'm late.
00:41All good. I already ordered her.
00:43Did you oversleep?
00:44Hell no.
00:45I've been up since the crack of black, okay?
00:48I lost track of time reading case files.
00:50Hi, sweetie.
00:52Can I have a black rice bowl with the dressing on the side,
00:55egg whites, extra fluffy,
00:57uh, a meal booster coffee with two shots of espresso?
01:02What?
01:03That's the most bougie breakfast order I've ever heard.
01:06Let me guess.
01:07You ordered a-a egg sandwich with extra cholesterol.
01:10And I'm excited to eat it.
01:12You working a big investigation?
01:14Those case files?
01:15I don't know.
01:16Those are slow burners.
01:17I just like to soak up as much knowledge as I can
01:20about any open case I can get my hands on.
01:22Gotta keep the black girl magic going.
01:25You know what your problem is?
01:26You got your co-workers thinking you're a black superhero.
01:29And?
01:30And you're not.
01:31You're 50 years old.
01:3248, thank you.
01:33And you're doing too much.
01:36Aren't you tired?
01:39I'm exhausted.
01:41But I've worked so hard and come so far.
01:44I can't take my foot off the gas now.
01:47Where did you come from?
01:49This is... this is blood.
01:51Whose dog is this?
01:54Ho, ho, ho.
01:56Ma'am!
01:57Looks like you fell and hit your head.
01:59Are you all right?
02:00I got jumped.
02:01Did they rob you?
02:04All my clients' keys.
02:05They could be robbing their houses right now.
02:07We're gonna need a list of names and addresses.
02:09We're gonna need to get units to all those houses ASAP.
02:12This isn't a federal case, Simone.
02:14It's LAPD.
02:15I got it.
02:16If you think I'm gonna walk away while you run towards danger,
02:19you don't know me at all.
02:20Now get some backup down here and an ambulance for this girl
02:23so we can go run these guys down.
02:25Damn.
02:26What is it that you think I'm doing?
02:27Calling the nail salon?
02:36Did you see the breaking news?
02:39Uh, what?
02:41Quite the scandal.
02:42Last night, this man stayed over at his girlfriend's house.
02:46They had quite the romantic evening.
02:50But when she woke up, instead of getting breakfast in bed,
02:53he was gone.
02:55No note, no text, no call.
02:59He ghosted her as if they don't work in the same building.
03:02I'm sorry.
03:03After you fell asleep, I, uh, I got a phone call from Michelle.
03:07So a woman I've never heard of got you out of my bed.
03:10No.
03:11This isn't helping.
03:12Michelle is, uh, my sponsor's wife.
03:17Randy didn't show up last night, so I, uh,
03:20went out to go look for him and found him in a dive bar.
03:25Hammered.
03:26Your sponsor.
03:27Oh, no.
03:28Decade of sobriety back to counting days instead of years.
03:31I'm so sorry.
03:33It's okay.
03:34Where is he now?
03:35He's home safe, drying up.
03:37Do you want to take a walk, talk?
03:39No.
03:40It's okay.
03:41I'm fine.
03:42Actually, uh, I need to talk to you later.
03:46Of course.
03:49It's been four months since Simone and Brendan joined our operation,
03:52and I want to commend the both of you for getting them to this point.
03:55I appreciate that, Matt,
03:56considering I had a tougher assignment with Simone.
03:59Excuse me.
04:00I have been turning a former TV star meat puppet into a solid field agent.
04:04My job is way tougher.
04:05At least actors can follow directions.
04:07Do you know how hard I've had to work to break a wild horse,
04:10especially one who constantly reminds you she's black beauty?
04:13Yes, Brendan.
04:14Hey, uh, am I supposed to be in here?
04:16You guys keep looking out at me.
04:17Hey, is that my file?
04:19And Simone's?
04:20You're just finishing up a senior's briefing, Brendan.
04:23Oh, sorry.
04:24Where is Simone?
04:26Uh, I have no idea.
04:27Oh, I see Carter hasn't been teaching his trainee about punctuality.
04:31Oh, speaking of.
04:34Simone, we were just talking about you.
04:36Because you're late.
04:37Sorry, boss, but I kind of got caught up in an international incident.
04:44This better be good, Simone.
04:46It is.
04:47A dog walker was assaulted by two robbers
04:49looking to gain access to her rich client's homes.
04:53Now, before LAPD could mobilize,
04:56two of the houses were already ransacked.
04:58One of them belonged to Victor Soroka,
05:01council general of the Republic of Belarus.
05:04A burglary of a dignitary's home isn't a great look for L.A.,
05:07but what elevates it to an international incident?
05:10Wait for it.
05:13Okay, freeze.
05:14And zoom in.
05:16Boom.
05:17They stole a diplomatic pouch.
05:19All right, I need to reach out to the consulate right away.
05:21Already did.
05:22They're sending someone.
05:23How about the State Department?
05:24No, I didn't call them.
05:25Those guys are even more uptight than the FBI.
05:27Hmm?
05:28I left that conversation to you.
05:29Oh, thanks.
05:35Radha.
05:37I was not aware that you were stationed here in Los Angeles.
05:40Secretary of Council. Two months now.
05:42Radha Ryback, meet Special Agents Carter Hope and Simone Clark,
05:45and this is Detective Naomi Voss.
05:47Are you the homeowner, ma'am?
05:48No, it's council general and his family's mansion.
05:50He sent me on his behalf.
05:52Um, you, uh, didn't go inside, did you?
05:56We had to.
05:57Robbery suspects had assaulted a woman.
05:59We made entry to make sure there wasn't anyone else in distress.
06:02Yeah, and we found out that they took a lot of the family's property.
06:05Including a diplomatic pouch.
06:08That's bad.
06:10Which is why the FBI is already involved.
06:12Any idea of what was in it?
06:14None.
06:15Well, if you knew, would you tell us?
06:16Diplomatic pouches are as sovereign as our consular.
06:20Belarus business only.
06:22I'm prohibited from sharing.
06:24What about the council general?
06:25Will he tell us?
06:26I doubt it.
06:27And he's busy getting ready for a state dinner.
06:30Still, we need to ask.
06:31It's in both our country's best interest to get that pouch back to you.
06:34And if we know what's inside of it, then that'll help us target where the thieves might try and sell it.
06:39And I'm supposed to trust that you won't take any pictures of what's inside before you hand it over?
06:45Rada, honey, nobody's trying to play you.
06:48All we want to do is catch these guys and get your country's confidential materials back.
06:53That's all.
06:56I see what I can do.
06:57Now, if you'll excuse me.
06:59Of course.
07:02How do you know her?
07:03From my counterintelligence days.
07:05She may be a diplomat right now, but once a spy, always a spy.
07:09So we can't trust her?
07:10Trust her.
07:11Simone, that woman is the second in command of a consulate for a bleak and volatile country that has been at war with itself since its independence.
07:19With these comrades, we trust no one.
07:22I appreciate you meeting with us, Mr. Consul General.
07:25You can appreciate all you want, but I cannot help you.
07:29Mr. Soroka, we're here in the interest of diplomacy.
07:31Whatever was in that pouch is of great importance to your country, so just let us help you get it back.
07:36Unless there was something in the pouch you don't want to disclose.
07:39I confess.
07:40It's nuclear launch codes, a list of American spies, and the Holy Grail.
07:47Holy Grail, yeah.
07:49It's funny, but, uh, Mr. Consul General, I can assure you we are only trying to help you get your pouch back.
07:56There's no ulterior motives here.
07:57Now I know you're lying.
07:59You think I haven't been briefed about you?
08:01I'm no longer in counterintelligence, but I respect the suspicion.
08:05Here's my card. You call if you change your mind.
08:07And if you don't, we'll contact you once the burglars have been caught and your property has been returned.
08:19Nice touch with the Russian.
08:21Think he's just being a diplomat, or is he actually hiding something?
08:25Both.
08:27PHONE VIBRATES
08:45Find him.
08:47And find the pouch before FBI does.
08:51Hey, any luck tracing that van?
08:53I managed to track it through the street cameras for half a mile, but then I lost it in the mid-Wilshire dead zone.
08:57But I got enough angles to create a 3D rendering and identify it as a 2009 Econoline.
09:03The system's currently using a program I created to match the dents and dings to other footage of the vehicle captured within the last few weeks.
09:10It feels like you want me to be impressed by this.
09:12Are you?
09:13Only results impress me.
09:15Right. So, uh, if there's any way I'm coming up short, just let me know.
09:19Oh, okay. You think I've been holding back?
09:21Your criticism's usually very...
09:24constructive.
09:25Okay, what is going on with you? You're even more emo than usual.
09:29Nothing. It's...
09:31Oh. Wait, what's this?
09:33Oh my god, there it is.
09:34Six sightings of the van in the last three weeks. Four with license plates.
09:37Okay, so if I just type in the information right here...
09:41There he is. Owner of the van, Tripp Madsen, 6247 Sycamore and Hollywood.
09:46Now I'm impressed.
09:47Alright, call in for a telephonic warrant.
09:52FBI, open up! We have a warrant!
10:07Check it out.
10:08What's with the stuff they stole this morning?
10:10No diplomatic pouch.
10:13What the...
10:15Okay, we'll take the roof. You cover the street.
10:22Okay.
10:32Who was that?
10:37Go, go, go.
10:41He must have jumped down there.
10:42Simone, suspect's on the loose. Most likely escaping through the building to our east.
10:49No suspects in sight.
10:52We got two on the ground and I can identify one as the van driver.
10:58Nothing personal.
10:59But next time you invite me to breakfast, I'm saying no.
11:06No sign of the diplomatic pouch.
11:09Killers must have taken it with them.
11:11Killers? Plural?
11:13No way one person could get two people off the roof against their will, even at gunpoint.
11:17And look, this looks like a mini photo studio.
11:19Probably to take pics of the stuff they steal to sell online.
11:22Maybe they took photos of what was in the pouch before they killed him.
11:25But I don't see any cameras. The photos must be on their phones.
11:27Let's pray they survive the eight-story fall.
11:33Reach out to Nazar. Tell him we tracked down the diplomatic pouch.
11:37We're back in business, but we have to work fast.
11:50What the hell are you doing?
11:52Give it to me.
11:55Let go of me! Don't tell my father to have you killed!
11:58Who told you I'd listen to you?
12:01Eric never let me down, unlike you.
12:04And you keep disappointing me.
12:07Don't do it!
12:14Are you insane?
12:16Are you insane?
12:17They love me in Belarus.
12:19Why am I not surprised?
12:20I mean, Vampire Cop was number one there for a while.
12:22All right, did you get either of these phones to work or what?
12:24Uh, no, not yet.
12:25Yeah, Brendan was just telling me how popular he is in Belarus.
12:28Why am I not surprised?
12:30Oh, here we go.
12:32Most of the files are corrupted, except for recent photos.
12:35Oh, they seem like fun.
12:37Wait, wait, hang on, hang on. There it is.
12:40Those are currency plates.
12:42For a $20 bill.
12:44How are you so ethically stupid?
12:49Dad, that's...
12:52I'm walking a razor's edge.
12:54There are those back home who think I'm not hardline enough.
12:58They're sharpening their knives,
13:01hoping for me to slip up,
13:03and even put an enemy in beside me.
13:06Hoping for me to slip up,
13:08and even put an enemy in beside me.
13:12And you.
13:15My old son.
13:17You constantly enlarge the target on my back.
13:21I'm trying to help the family, not hurt it.
13:23I don't understand why you don't have this boogeyman put Rada in the ocean.
13:26Enough!
13:29Whatever you have to stops.
13:30And if not, I'll send you to join the infantry in Vitebsk.
13:35Understood?
13:38The good news is the plates are counterfeit, but they are damn fine ones.
13:41How can you tell?
13:42You see that little hint of green right there in the metal's coloring?
13:44That's copper.
13:45U.S. currency plates?
13:46Zero copper.
13:47Why would you smuggle a plate into the United States?
13:49Wouldn't it be safer to bang out $20 bills in Belarus?
13:52Actually, Belarus is known for going medieval on criminals.
13:55Los Angeles is the world's capital for smugglers.
13:58Los Angeles is the world's capital for forging.
14:01They will get much better quality bills here.
14:04There's something not tracking for me here.
14:06Corruption is rampant in Belarus. That's a given.
14:08But counterfeiting U.S. currency, that's a fast track to sanctions and more.
14:12Why would Victor risk it?
14:14Maybe he's not involved.
14:15I just don't think we have enough information to speculate yet.
14:19Where you headed, boss?
14:20To have a clandestine conversation.
14:23Going old school with that newspaper.
14:26I couldn't resist.
14:28So, out with it.
14:31Why are you here?
14:33I told my team that we couldn't trust you.
14:36But I'm going to gamble on the fact that your ambition outweighs your loyalty.
14:39And I do have a sneaking suspicion that you don't much like being number two to Victor Soroka.
14:45No comment.
14:48Let's walk.
14:53We know what's inside the pouch.
14:55That was fast. Does that mean you recovered it?
14:58No. Someone got to it first, killed the burglars, took the pouch.
15:01But we do have photos of what was inside.
15:06What? Are you going to make me guess?
15:08Counterfeit plates for an American $20 bill.
15:13And what is it you want from me?
15:15And what is it you want from me?
15:17Well, at a minimum, insight. And a maximum, get us those plates back.
15:23Why would I do any of that for you?
15:25No. No, no, no. You wouldn't be doing it for me. You'd be doing it for you.
15:29Put your thumb on the scales of justice, Radha, and you might just find yourself becoming the new Consul General.
15:38Well, Victor's too cautious to do something so stupid.
15:42Focus on Costa, his son. That boy is nothing but trouble.
15:45And Victor always cleans up his baby boy's messes.
15:48Radha, the kid's got diplomatic immunity.
15:50And there's no guarantee that I can push the state to revoke that immunity, so...
15:55Well, how do we get these plates?
15:56Well, there's nothing I can do.
15:58No, no, no, Radha. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
16:00There's a party tonight. Right? The consulate, the reception.
16:04Okay. Put two names on the guest list for me.
16:06Victor will smell undercover agents a mile away.
16:09I think I have a way around that.
16:12Our prime suspect is Costa Soroka.
16:14He's the 23-year-old son of the Consul General, and he's been in the U.S. with his father for the last three years.
16:19He's taken complete advantage of his diplomatic immunity.
16:22He was arrested five times. Assault, drugs, theft.
16:26Yeah, but he's walked away every time. This kid has got to feel invincible.
16:30For our purposes, he basically is.
16:32The only way we can arrest him is if Belarus revokes his immunity, which is a big lift.
16:36And that's why our first priority is to recover these currency plates.
16:40Now, Senator Smith has pulled some strings at the State Department, got us approved to conduct a black bag operation.
16:46Inside the Belarus consulate?
16:48Brendan and Laura are going in.
16:49No, I can't. I can't do that. I'm too famous in Belarus to go undercover.
16:52Exactly. Which is why you will be going in as yourself.
16:55Ooh.
16:56Yeah, that's right.
16:57A paid public appearance at tonight's consulate reception by none other than the vampire cop himself,
17:03organized by his publicist, Bibby Baxter.
17:07That sounds like an alias for a Marvel superhero.
17:10Next time, you got to let me come up with the undercover names, because you do not do it well, sir.
17:18While Brendan steals all the focus, Laura, you are going to find your way into the consul general's office,
17:23where most likely these plates are locked in a safe behind his desk.
17:26Oh, that's great, but my safe-cracking skills leave a little to be desired.
17:31Then it's a good thing I already have the entry code.
17:33That is next-level smooth, boss.
17:35Sooner than not, this is not a normal undercover op.
17:38Brendan and Laura will be on sovereign territory.
17:40If they get in trouble, we won't be able to just bust in and save them.
17:43Speak for yourself.
17:44If anything happens to my boy, you already know I'm going full mama there. Huh?
17:50Yeah, you got it worse.
17:52What's that supposed to mean?
17:53Never mind. Laura, Brendan, go get your glam on.
17:56Carter, fire up the surveillance van. This party starts in an hour.
18:06Simone, a word?
18:07Yeah, what's up?
18:08I heard that Brendan was going undercover at a party.
18:11Oh, girl, don't worry about that. I'm going to be in a van right outside.
18:14It's not his safety I'm worried about. It's his sobriety.
18:19What?
18:20Did you know his sponsor fell on a wagon?
18:22Off the wagon. And no, he didn't tell me.
18:25You're close to him.
18:26Say no more. I'm on it. Good looking out.
18:32Damn, B. You're going to catch a crook or a date because you fine.
18:38You see it.
18:39Yes, I do.
18:41You sure you're up for it?
18:43Yeah. Laura's got to do all the hard work. I just got to show up. Be me. Well, old me.
18:50Well, the old you used to drink at parties like this. It could get uncomfortable.
18:56I've been to plenty of bars sober. Remember back at Quantico? We used to go drinking with the Nats.
19:02Oh, yeah. And you would hold on to one drink all night until I would always accidentally spill it on you so you didn't have to take a sip.
19:13The difference is I won't be there.
19:17That's when I told you about Randy.
19:20Why didn't you?
19:21You've got enough on your plate. It's fine.
19:23Don't do that.
19:24Do what?
19:25I always have time for you.
19:28I know. I just, you know, Randy's my guy. He saved my life. He told me what to do, when to do it.
19:36And at ten years sober, if he can go out, what chance do I have?
19:41Hey, you've got to tell Garza and be pulled from the assignment. Nothing is more important than your sobriety. Nothing.
19:49We're rookies. We've got to prove ourselves every day. That can't be part of my job I can't do. Come on.
19:54I'll make it work. I always do.
19:58Right.
19:59Right.
20:00But I will be in your ear. And I will be that angel on your shoulder.
20:06I'll be first.
20:08I do have a little devil in me, don't I?
20:13You good?
20:15Yeah.
20:19Love you.
20:25We're in?
20:27Eyes on Victor. No sign of the kid yet.
20:32Oh.
20:33Uh, no, thank you.
20:36I've seen a few heads turn, but I'm not really getting the Belarus love.
20:41Stalker, MC? Vampire, huh?
20:43Who's Shamuy? It is him.
20:45You can't kill what's already dead.
20:47I'm your biggest fan.
20:49Brendan, please. Nice to meet you. It's nice to meet you.
20:52Is this your girlfriend?
20:53No. Uh, no. Publicist. Bibi Baxter.
20:59Why are you here?
21:00Pay the parents.
21:01Right.
21:03How much to take him home with us after a month's stay?
21:08These Belarusians are thirsty.
21:10You tired already?
21:13Don't worry about me.
21:14As your training agent, one of my jobs is to make sure you're fit for duty.
21:18Self-care matters.
21:19Carter, I appreciate the concern, but nobody is more about the me than me.
21:26I'm good.
21:27Good to know.
21:31I'm gonna miss you.
21:33I'm gonna miss you too.
21:35I'm gonna miss you too.
21:37I'm gonna miss you too.
21:39One, two, three.
21:43Yes. Really nice.
21:45Thank you, ladies.
21:46So, uh, what is your favorite part of the show? The romance? The action?
21:52You're a body.
21:53We used to have watch parties and take a bloodshot every time you said crime sucks.
21:57We should do one now.
22:00Oh, uh, what's a bloodshot?
22:02Crème bamboula. Red wine and vodka.
22:05Everybody must take a bloodshot.
22:09You got this, B.
22:14All right.
22:18Crime sucks.
22:24Wow-wee. That was so good.
22:27My father has no vision. Never has.
22:31I could do so much for this family.
22:33Oh, hello, boys.
22:34Oh, hello, boys.
22:37Radha.
22:39You enjoying yourself?
22:41Always.
22:42What are you smiling about?
22:43Just boys who play at being men.
22:52Let me see that picture.
22:53I'm getting it now.
22:55Another one?
22:56Uh, yeah.
22:57Line them up.
23:02I'm in.
23:04Yeah.
23:10Okay.
23:20Got eyes on the plates.
23:25Crime sucks!
23:29You know what else sucks? Having a tiny bladder.
23:32I'll be right back, okay? Just give me one second.
23:35What is going on with Laura?
23:36We lost contact with her.
23:38Brendan, go to Victor's office and check on her right now.
23:40Got it.
23:48The safe is open.
23:50There's no sign of Laura anywhere.
23:55Hey, Laura, you okay?
23:57Here.
23:59I got you.
24:00They ambushed me.
24:01Knocked me out before I could see a face.
24:04And they took the plates.
24:05Ow.
24:07What are you doing in my office?
24:11Hi.
24:12This is a misunderstanding.
24:14Oh, is it?
24:15We have a soundproof roof downstairs where we work out these misunderstandings.
24:21We gotta get him out of there.
24:22You can't go in there.
24:23Watch me.
24:24Simone, stand down.
24:25But...
24:26Laura, tell the Consul General to answer his phone.
24:28Sir, your phone is gonna ring.
24:30You should answer it.
24:31What?
24:32Your phone.
24:36Hello?
24:37Who is this?
24:38Matthew Garza, FBI.
24:42And these two belong to you.
24:43Yes, and I want them back right now.
24:45Sure.
24:46After I hold a press conference about your FBI committing an illegal break-in into my consulate.
24:53Fine, and then I'll hold my own press conference detailing a Belarus conspiracy to devalue the U.S. dollar by using counterfeits.
25:00You tell me, Consul General, who wins that press war.
25:05They're gonna walk out the front door, Victor.
25:12Excord them out.
25:15Whew.
25:22It's a lovely dress.
25:24Which I would like for you to burn when you're done collecting all the DNA from my attacker off of it.
25:29No use in keeping a failure dress.
25:31Hey, we know more now than we did before, right?
25:34Costa took those currency plates.
25:35He left the consulate.
25:37He was there to steal it, just like us, so...
25:39So father and son aren't working together on this.
25:41Maybe Victor found out what his son was up to.
25:43Try to stop him.
25:44We just need to figure out where Costa's going to next.
25:46I will. I have a bolo out for him, so let's see if we get lucky.
25:49Okay.
25:50Finished.
25:51Can you please rush that? We need hard evidence to build this case.
25:59Hey, uh, why'd you tell Simone about my sponsor?
26:05I was worried about you.
26:07The way you've been acting.
26:10Are you okay?
26:12I wanted to tell her.
26:14And I'm fine.
26:15No, you're not.
26:16Yeah.
26:18Randy's my rock.
26:21You know, and now he's got less days sober than I do.
26:27Nothing makes sense right now.
26:29Isn't that the AA mantra?
26:31One day at a time?
26:33Except I've done everything you're not supposed to do in the first year of recovery.
26:37I moved, I started a new job, new relationships.
26:40And despite all of that, you're doing great.
26:44Am I?
26:48Maybe I've taken on too much.
26:51What are you hinting at?
26:56We shouldn't talk about it here. Look, Randy's...
27:00He's taking a newcomer chip. I really need to be there.
27:04Call me later?
27:05Yeah, I'll try.
27:08Ooh.
27:10Homework?
27:11Yeah, I pulled some files on the Belarusian government and counterfeiting.
27:15You've had more than a full day. You should rest.
27:17I know, but I still want to study a little bit more.
27:20If you stay ready, you don't have to get ready.
27:24Good night.
27:25Night.
27:27See?
27:28That's called work ethic. You know how hard it was to teach you that?
27:32How you doing?
27:34Fine.
27:35Liar.
27:37That idiot kid could have killed you.
27:39But he didn't.
27:41Doesn't mean it wasn't scary as hell.
27:44You know, I'm here if you want to talk about it or grab a beer and not talk about it.
27:50Thanks, but I'm going to go change.
28:05Okay.
28:33Oh my God.
28:36Oh my God.
28:42You fell asleep driving?
28:43Yep.
28:44You could have killed yourself or an innocent civilian.
28:47You're right. I've just been going so hard for so long, I guess it just caught up with me.
28:56I never want to be seen as a liability.
28:59You can never be seen that way.
29:02Once I get this vintage body some rest, I think I'll be fine.
29:06It's more than your body. You need to rest your mind.
29:09Extra sleep isn't enough.
29:11At this rate, you're going to burn yourself out in six months.
29:17Good morning, baby girl.
29:19Good morning.
29:20Now, who do we have here?
29:21Daddy, this is my friend Naomi.
29:23Your friend or your friend-friend?
29:26Oh my God.
29:28How do you have to make everything so weird?
29:30No, Daddy. She is just my friend, Naomi.
29:34This is my dad, Cuddy.
29:36Nice to meet you.
29:37Pleasure.
29:38Well, sorry I can't stay around and charm you ladies, but I got my weekly chess match.
29:44And today, I is bringing the pain.
29:48Good luck.
29:49I don't need it.
29:50I got to go too.
29:51You want a ride?
29:52Nah, Brendan is going to swoop me.
29:54Remember what I said.
29:57Got it.
30:01Hey, boss.
30:02Andrew and I got a DNA hit from my dress.
30:04The guy who attacked me at the embassy was Costa.
30:06Just like we thought.
30:07Finally, some hard evidence.
30:09He's still out there with those counterfeit plates.
30:11Yeah, well, he's either going to try to sell them to a third party
30:13or he's going to try to make himself some funny money, right?
30:15Our printer is a rock star.
30:18And expensive.
30:19It's always worth every counterfeit penny.
30:22What about your father?
30:24Just keep printing money.
30:26Once I make this film, I'm going to make it big.
30:28Keep printing money.
30:29Once I make this family all look like a creature,
30:31you'll fall in line.
30:35How you doing, B?
30:36Great.
30:38How are you?
30:39I would say great, too.
30:42But then I'd be lying just as hard as you are.
30:45You want coffee?
30:46No, no, I'm good.
30:47We got to roll, actually.
30:48Boss just texted.
30:49So Costa is still in the wind.
30:50He wants us to liaise with the Secret Service.
30:52See if there's any Russian or Belarusian printers
30:55who are suspected counterfeiters.
30:57Skip the Secret Service part of it.
30:59Why is that?
31:00Because my dad plays chess with some Russian guys.
31:03One of them, Anton, is a former Redfella.
31:05You know, Russian mafia.
31:07And baby, he likes to talk.
31:13Clever.
31:14Do not patronize me, Anton.
31:19Daddy.
31:21Breaking the clock is not going to make it any better.
31:24Simone, what are you doing here?
31:27Can't a girl come watch her daddy in action?
31:29She can, but you would not.
31:33And you know better than to distract a player mid-game.
31:37Well, I didn't come to distract you.
31:39I came to distract your opponent.
31:41Hey, Anton, this is Brendan.
31:43He's an FBI special agent, too.
31:45Hey.
31:46Can we chat?
31:48About what?
31:49The circles you used to run in.
31:51Hey, now, hold on.
31:52Anton is my friend.
31:53You're not about to interrogate.
31:54It's all right, Cuddy.
31:55It's all right.
31:56Let her go.
31:57Let her ask her questions.
31:58Hey.
31:59Pajos, we just wanted to talk to you
32:01about some Eastern Bloc folks who know a thing
32:03or two about counterfeiting.
32:04Yeah, somebody is making fake $20 bills.
32:07You think you can help us figure out who it is?
32:10I'll entertain you.
32:11You entertain me.
32:14I beat your father every week.
32:16Not true.
32:17It's true.
32:18If you can take his place and beat me,
32:21then sure, maybe I can call some colleagues
32:23and we'll see what we can find out.
32:26Game on.
32:27Slide over, Daddy.
32:30Teach this young man a few things.
32:33You made a big mistake.
32:36You should have asked for a fresh game.
32:39I'm about to beat your father in three months.
32:42Maybe that's true for my dad, but not for me, comrade.
32:45Let's get it.
32:46Arrogance.
32:47I like that.
32:48What do you like?
32:49This.
32:56Brendan, I was just thinking about it.
32:58You paid for lunch last week, remember?
33:00Can I pay you back?
33:02With a check?
33:06Oh, snap.
33:08Y'all don't know if we locked the car when we got out.
33:11You should go check.
33:19That's what you call a panic move.
33:22Now, I'm just going to sit back and let the clock run out
33:26so you can realize how screwed you are.
33:30How is that?
33:33You have a very special daughter there.
33:35Yeah, I was going to say annoying,
33:38but I will say special.
33:42Better make those phone calls now, Anton.
33:46This feels like a wild goose chase.
33:48Have faith, Carter.
33:53Mr. Verhoeven, it's the FBI.
33:56It's the FBI, sir.
33:57We just want to talk.
34:00Get down!
34:05He's reloading.
34:07FBI!
34:08Get down!
34:09Get down!
34:10Get down!
34:11Get down!
34:12Get down!
34:13He's reloading.
34:14FBI!
34:15Drop it!
34:16We got the plates, Carter.
34:18Cuff him.
34:20A ton of phony money.
34:21We got you on counterfeiting and murder.
34:23You won't be able to charge me.
34:25I have diplomatic immunity.
34:27Maybe we can't charge you,
34:28but we can hold you for as long as the law will allow.
34:33What about you, sweet thing?
34:35You don't have diplomatic immunity.
34:37You want to talk?
34:39Don't tell them anything.
34:41Meet this guy outside.
34:42We'll have a little chat with his friend.
34:46I'm not talking.
34:47You just did.
34:49I'm supposed to play dumb.
34:50You're way too smart for that.
34:52Would you like to make a deal?
34:53What does this mean, a deal?
34:55You tell us the truth,
34:56and we take years off your sentence.
34:58Like how they do on American TV?
35:00Like Vampire Cop?
35:04Crime sucks.
35:06Yes, crime sucks.
35:07I love that show.
35:09My family would watch it together in Belarus.
35:11Well, maybe we could make an introduction.
35:14If you tell us what we need to know,
35:16I mean, the guy who plays Vampire Cop,
35:18he works with us.
35:20My family would be amazed.
35:21Cooperate, and you'll make it back home
35:23to see them again real soon.
35:24Where is Costa?
35:27On the hunt.
35:28For what?
35:29A woman from the consulate.
35:30Rada Rybak?
35:31Yes.
35:32Costa says she is threatened and must be killed,
35:34so Minx can't replace his father with her.
35:39Oh, my God.
36:09Oh, my God.
36:39Oh, my God.
37:03Nice seeing you again.
37:05Doctor.
37:06Cowboy up, Costa.
37:07Ambulance is on its way.
37:10You okay?
37:20You doing your Wednesday FaceTime dinner with Ellis?
37:22Mm. He's gonna get an earful tonight.
37:25You still struggling with what happened?
37:27No.
37:30A little.
37:31I don't know which part's worse,
37:32trying not to be terrified so you can do your job
37:35or being terrified and still having to do your job.
37:38Mm. Yeah, they both suck.
37:42You know, I've been thinking,
37:44and I've come to the fair conclusion that I was wrong.
37:47Brendan is way more work as a rookie than Simone,
37:49so you win.
37:51Okay, what are you talking about?
37:53A pity victory?
37:55Come on. How fragile do you think I am?
37:57No way.
37:58Simone is clearly the most challenging rookie
38:00in the history of rookies,
38:01so you can take the W.
38:03How about this?
38:04They're both equal pains in the ass.
38:06Mm. I just think it's only 14 more months of training to go.
38:16To the new Consul General for Belarus
38:18and the City of Angels.
38:21Thank you, Matthew.
38:25I was right, huh?
38:27You've been angling for Viktor's position.
38:29Of course.
38:31I knew Kosta was smuggling Viktor was covering for him.
38:33Politically, my hands were tied
38:35until you and your merry band of special agents showed up.
38:38Glad we could be of service.
38:41No once a spy, always a spy.
38:43You were always so good at anticipating other people's moves.
38:47Not Kosta's.
38:48I can't believe that little bastard tried to kill me.
38:51Yeah.
38:52You know, one of the great perks of my new job
38:55is the connections,
38:57so, um, call me if you ever need a favor.
39:00I will.
39:01Or if you ever want to grab dinner sometime.
39:07See?
39:08You are much better at this than I am
39:11because I did not anticipate that move.
39:14Well, we have so much in common.
39:16Well, I've been to war three times, too.
39:19I guess people like us are just not meant to be tied down.
39:22Doesn't mean we can't have some fun.
39:31Hey.
39:32Is, uh, now a good time?
39:37Look, um, about last night...
39:40Stop.
39:41Before you say anything, I have something to say.
39:44I'm so sorry for what you're going through with your sponsor.
39:48But you're not getting off the hook that easily.
39:51Off the hook?
39:53That stuff you said about taking on too much
39:56then implying that dating me was part of that?
39:59No.
40:00If you want to give up on us
40:02before we've even really gotten started,
40:04that's on you.
40:06No excuses.
40:08Just...
40:10end it now.
40:11You don't understand.
40:14When I drank, I-I hurt people.
40:17I know what I've gotten into with you,
40:20and I'm willing to put in the work.
40:26Are you?
40:30I want it to work.
40:32But I am who I am here.
40:35It won't be easy.
40:38I don't care if it's easy or not.
40:43I only think of you.
40:46I'm sorry.
40:51LAPD, open up.
40:55You know you're wrong for that.
40:57You're right. I bet.
40:59Let me make it up to you with it a little bit.
41:01What is it?
41:02Something for you to concentrate on besides work.
41:05Something that will relax your body and your mind.
41:10Knitting?
41:11I know you tripping.
41:13I'm not.
41:14Pearl, I tripped when my cousin in Oakland turned me on to knitting.
41:18At first, I was real sus.
41:20Then I made a beanie cap,
41:22and I was like, damn,
41:24twisting knots is very therapeutic.
41:26Come here.
41:28Well, where do we start?
41:32With your hands.
41:35First, we start with a slip knot,
41:37and then we'll cast on.
41:40You all right?
41:42So you really think this is gonna keep me from burning out?
41:49I don't know.
41:51But if it doesn't, we'll find something that will.
41:56Okay, all right.
41:58You said we need to cast on.
42:00Right.
42:01And then once I teach you how to pearl,
42:04we'll get into the zone.
42:06Into the zone?
42:09Girl, you got a lot of layers.
42:12But I'm down.
42:13Let's do it.
42:16I'm down.
42:17Let's do it.
